Chapter 204 - Be My Friend?
Yang Dao and the rest reacted and immediately glanced at the source of the noise. There were a few animals in the Cold Desert. Flesh wing squirrel, Dust cloud rabbit, etc. Among these animals, one species remained very mysterious.
The visitor at the Orlenko house belonged to this species, smoke leopard. This leopard was named after its smoky color. At this moment, the shiny eyes were locked to the vessel filled with chicken. Mina Orlenko said, “Guards.”
Instantly few people carrying out firearms arrived at the place. Eric suddenly said, “Finally, this ghost is found. Today I will shoot you once and for all.”
Yang Dao shouted, “STOP.” his loud voice gathered everyone’s attention. The boy said, “Everyone, step back. She is hungry, she needs food. In this cold and barren land where else would a mother gather food if not from humans.”
People were confused about what he said when Yang Dao poured a big pan with chicken curry and slowly walked over. The leopard saw the human walking towards her, but the eyes were vigilant. She was cautious about these two-legged animals. In the past, she had seen them killing her kin in the mountains.
The leopard growled. Icarus said, “Dao come back.”
Yang Dao stopped and said, “Can you just ball up a bit? I know what I am doing. Look at Kiya and learn from her. Sissy.” the boy walked again.
Icarus glanced at Kiya and found that the latter looked very calm. All the boys who gazed at Kiya felt ashamed at this moment. This little girl was so calm. How could they, as men act like sissies? ASHAMED.
The boy grit their teeth and clenched their fists. Eric wanted to order the guards to shoot, but he did not dare to. The moment Yang Dao gave them the command to step back, he recalled the boy handling the bandits. Mina Orlenko said, “Young Master Feng, do not go close. She is a predator.”
Yang Dao smiled and said, “Humans are the biggest predator in the world, madam. Animals still hunt other animals for hunger while humans devour the entire world for various kinds of hunger inside them.” his words made sense, and they were profound.
The boy stood ten meters away from the leopard. He slowly bent down, without taking his eyes off the Leopard in front of him. He knew that once he breaks eye contact, the anxious Leopard will attack him and the people will shoot her down. He placed the big dish in his hands on the ground and said, “You can eat with content. No one will harm you. Okay?”
His voice was very soft. The boy walked back a few steps slowly with his face still towards the leopard. After he got out of the twenty-meter range, he turned his back to the leopard and walked back to the people. All the people had backed off a lot when Yang Dao walked to the beast.
The boy saw the Leopard was still not moving. He said to Eric, “Would you have the people aiming at her from the roof move by yourself, or should I make a move?” his cold and domineering voice shook the man. He waved his hand and the snipers on the roof put away their guns. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
The leopard eased. Beasts have strong instincts and she knew that someone was aiming at her. Now that the guns were put away. She calmed down. The people were all out of her quick attack range.
Yang Dao said gazing at the beast, “You can eat. If you feel hungry after this, tell me I will get you more food. Eat now, your children must be waiting.” it was as if the leopard could understand him. She walked forward to the big bowl and ate the chicken. Yet it would look up from time to time and scan the surroundings.
Yang Dao said, “You guys, eat as well. Leopards can eat a lot. I won’t hesitate to cut your share for her.” the people all had their plates filled with rice and curry. They ate. Yang Dao already had the chefs take out a portion for the maids and the rest of the staff.
As he predicted, the leopard cleaned the big vessel in front of it and growled. Yang Dao looked up and saw the leopard licking its mouth repeatedly. The boy chuckled and stood up from his chair. Only he was calm enough to sit down. The rest were all standing. Some, ready to counter the beast in case it attacked, while some were ready to flee away.
Yang Dao asked a maid to get him another big deep vessel from the kitchen. The maid looked at Mina Orlenko, who nodded. She quickly got Yang Dao what he asked for and he poured the food inside the pan to the brim. Then he walked closer to the leopard. This time his speed was as if he was walking normally.
The leopard growled vigilantly. Yang Dao frowned and said, “What are you being all vigilant about? Behave or I will smack your rump.”
The people were shocked, but suddenly the leopard bowed her head a bit. It was as if a docile kitty was scolded by its master. Yang Dao smiled and poured the food into the pan used earlier. He was standing just a meter away from the leopard.
He crouched down and looked at the leopard. He stretched his hand and said, “Would you like to be my friend?”
Icarus whispered, “Did he fall on his head when he went out alone today?”
Kiya stepped on his foot harshly and said, “You behave, or I will kill you.” the girl was already very tense during this whole situation. She did not want her lovely Yang Dao to be eaten by the wild beast.
But the next moment they all were shocked. The leopard raised her paw and placed it on top of Yang Dao’s palm. The boy smiled. “You are a smart one, aren’t you? Here, you eat. We will talk later.”
